If it had been some time ago, it wouldn't have been difficult for Yang Rui to get 300,000 to 400,000 copper coins. However, he had to think of another way now!
The granary of the mountain village had already collected close to 30,000 units of grain. He could first send them to the Road of Peace through the carriage company, and they would be able to exchange them for about 150,000 coppers. In addition to Yang Rui's current funds, he would be able to gather about 200,000 coppers.
The current funds were only enough to deliver 40,000 units of food to the Yellow Turban Association every day. At this rate, it would take almost a month to complete the mission! This was twice as long as Yang Rui's plan. This would affect the time it would take for the mountain village to upgrade to a town!
If the mission "Food First" was not completed before the upgrade, the profit margin of the mission would be greatly reduced, and he might even lose money! Because upgrading to a town was related to the System update, the price of food would skyrocket after the System update …
"Village Chief Blazing Sun! Hahaha … I just came back and heard from the waiter that Village Chief Blazing Sun is here. So, I hurried over … Eh? This is … "At this time, Housekeeper Zhao of" A pint of incense "pushed the door open and walked in with a smile. However, he didn't expect the situation in the room and was speechless.
At this time, the Yellow Turban Taoist's hands were tied and Mo Lin was holding the Taoist captive. The scene was indeed strange.
"Housekeeper Zhao is back. Please come in! Please come in! "
Yang Rui was thinking about the mission. When he saw Housekeeper Zhao enter, he stood up and welcomed him. At the same time, his eyes lit up. Yang Rui was going to talk to "A pint of incense" about the wine cooperation. If the negotiation was successful, it would naturally solve the problem of the current shortage of funds!
Manager Wang was out on official business. Although Steward Zhao couldn't make the final decision on the cooperation of the drinks, his relationship with Yang Rui had always been good. He could play a role in promoting the cooperation, which would definitely be of great help in the end!
"This Taoist is wanted by the county magistrate. I have him in my hands and am interrogating him …"
Yang Rui whispered into Shopkeeper Zhao's ear, and Shopkeeper Zhao immediately understood. After all, Yang Rui was also a county magistrate, and Shopkeeper Zhao knew about it from the start.
"Then, how about Blazing Sun and I have a chat in the front hall? Since we have nothing to do, let's have a drink … "Steward Zhao politely pulled Yang Rui to the front hall of the inn. He and Yang Rui had always been close, so it was quite common for them to have a small chat whenever they had the chance.
The two of them quickly helped each other to the front hall. They picked a simple and elegant room and sat down. While they were at it, they ordered a few dishes to go with the wine.
Housekeeper Zhao was a person who suited the occasion. Yang Rui was never stingy with him. Every time they met, he would give him some money and things. This time was no exception. However, Yang Rui was a little short on money recently. This time, he only gave him two small jars of specialty wine.
Yang Rui just happened to want to talk to him about the wine cooperation, so he took out an extra jar of wine and opened the seal. "Housekeeper Zhao, today, Blazing Sun invites you to taste the small wine brewed by the mountain village!"
It seemed that Yang Rui was not as generous as before, but specialty wine was very rare, so the price was naturally not cheap!
"Hmm? … Good wine! Good wine! "
Shopkeeper Zhao originally thought that Yang Rui was a little "stingy", but the moment he drank a bowl of wine, his eyes immediately lit up.
"This wine? I'm afraid it's a specialty? " After thinking about it for a long time, Housekeeper Zhao realized that he had lost his composure, so he tried to ask.
"Housekeeper Zhao's wine tasting skills are very good. I admire you very much!" Yang Rui cupped his hands, acknowledging Housekeeper Zhao's previous guess.
"Oh? It's true! It's really good wine! Good wine! Haha … "
Housekeeper Zhao subconsciously pulled the two small jars of wine that Yang Rui gave him in front of him. He did not think much of the wine, but he did not expect it to be a specialty wine! Housekeeper Zhao, who was a little greedy for wine, naturally paid more attention to it.
"This wine is newly brewed in the mountain village, so it shouldn't have appeared in the market yet, right? I wonder if Blazing Sun is willing to cooperate with A pint of incense again? How about letting A pint of incense be in charge of the sales of your wine in the village? Although I can't make the decision, I can still recommend it to Shopkeeper Wang. I believe he will also be interested! "
After tasting the special wine that Yang Rui brought, Housekeeper Zhao was the first to bring up the topic of cooperation.
"To be honest, Housekeeper Zhao, Blazing Sun is also interested in cooperating with your shop again to find a way to sell the wine in the mountain village! However, most of the wine brewed in the mountain village is still high quality wine. The production rate of this specialty wine is very low. This is something that Blazing Sun wants to mention first. "
"So it's like this … The rarer something is, the more valuable it is! Although the quantity is very small, it will not affect the cooperation between our two shops … "
"However, if that's the case, I'm afraid that the cooperation between the mountain village and your shop will be based on high quality wine …"
After that, Yang Rui and Housekeeper Zhao chatted as they drank, discussing the details of the cooperation. Although Housekeeper Zhao could not represent A pint of incense to make the final decision, the two of them still discussed the basic framework of the cooperation. They only needed to wait for Shopkeeper Wang to come back so that Housekeeper Zhao could recommend the whole story to him!
The two of them talked from noon until evening. Yang Rui originally wanted to go to the County Commandant's Mansion to see if he could receive another mission to eliminate the rebels. However, since it was already late, he did not disturb them.
The next morning, Yang Rui brought the few remaining jars of the mountain village's special wine and went to the County Commandant's Mansion to look for Liu County Lieutenant.
Yang Rui was now the Patrol Inspector of the County Commandant's Mansion. He had the right to enter and leave the County Commandant's Mansion freely. Moreover, Yang Rui was also well-known in the County Commandant's Mansion because he had destroyed the Gourd Valley's bandit nest. As such, Yang Rui successfully met with Liu County Lieutenant and "respectfully" presented the mountain village's special wine to him.
After knowing that Yang Rui had presented the special wine, although Liu County Lieutenant was very interested in Yang Rui's "filial piety" and Yang Rui had also led the topic to the direction of the mission, this Liu County Lieutenant always praised Yang Rui and did not have the slightest intention of continuing the mission!
After half a morning, Yang Rui had no choice but to bid farewell to Liu County Lieutenant and return to A pint of incense.
"Village Chief Blazing Sun, Housekeeper Zhao has already explained the wine matter to me in detail! As for the cooperation method that you have discussed, I do not have many objections. However, this wine's special wine, A pint of incense, would like to have the title sponsorship. What do you think, Village Chief Blazing Sun? "
